"Extraordinary Tuesday"
(c) 2001 Heather Gallay

-verse 1-
There's a loud clamor on my bedroom door
And it startles me from sleep
He says, National disaster on the television
I think you'd better see

-verse 2-
Groggy from my dreams, I descend the stairs
I can't believe my eyes
Oh, God! Oh, good God, New York City's dying
And it was homicide

-chorus-
Something inside me changed
Everything outside seems strange
What can I do? What can I say?

Red, white and blue is waving
Our injured souls need saving
On this extraordinary Tuesday

-verse 3-
Now there's a war raging on foreign land
And the enemy, he has no name
So we're fighting faceless monsters with our blindfolds on
The truth is, we don't know who to blame

-verse 4-
Don't you see what fell down that September morning?
It wasn't just the sky
A generation once removed from the Hawks and Doves
Is being forced to fly

-chorus-
Something inside me changed
Everything outside seems strange
What can I do? What can I say?

Red, white and blue is waving
Our injured souls need saving
On this extraordinary Tuesday

-chorus 2-
Something inside me changed
Everything outside seems strange
What can I do? What can I say?

Looking through different eyes
Watching this world slowly die
On this extraordinary Tuesday
